Committee Votes To Object To NH Bobcat Hunting Season

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A legislative committee has voted to object to a controversial proposal for a bobcat hunting and trapping season in New Hampshire, saying the traps also could catch Canada lynx — a threatened species.

The committee, which reviews rules proposed by state agencies, voted Friday to send the proposals to Fish and Game committees of the state House and Senate for further review after about 20 people testified, most of them against the season.
